  • Brazil
  • United States

  • Chile

  • Jamaica
  • Bolivia
  • Honduras/Costa Rica

Ridiculous that Mexico shouldn't have even qualified yet, with competent official time keeping (9 fucking minutes?!?!? Then an extra 2 minutes because?!?!?)

Mexico should be in Pot D with Costa Rica rather than in Pot A. Total fucking bullshit. I hope that they get Jamaica.

We can also laugh at Canada for how they have fallen off since qualifying, but if they make it in and they figure their issues out can also be a tough out. 

Oh wait, never mind, they got buttfucked (assuming they get past T&T).

The U.S. & Mexico are the two most likely Pot A teams not to advance. 

I would think that Mexico has the worst odds of advancing out of the 4 Pot A teams. 

If it means that Gregg is fired, I don’t mind not advancing.

Do the pots matter once the groups have been set? What am I missing?

The pots signify the tier ranking of the teams. (Host countries get placed in Pot A, which means that they don’t have to play a top level team.)

Uruguay is the best 2nd tier team (Pot B).

It is like being a 1 seed in the NCAA hoops tournament.

Copa tickets went on sale today. Looks like all the brokers got everything they could. I was looking at Met Life in NJ, freaking expensive as hell to see Chile-Argentina or the semis. 
 

thanks @Macklemore

 

I wanted to buy Argentina’s group match in Atlanta. Couldn’t find a ticket that wasn’t resale once sale was open for general public. All of them were purchased on the pre-sales. Cheapest nosebleed is almost $400 with fees. Nothing in the lower level for under a grand. A fucking joke. Thankfully, the demand for Team USA was much less and they’re still tickets available for face value. I bought 2 lower level near the box for $450 all in.
